Dr Massimiliano Vasile, Reader in Space Systems Engineering, University of Strathclyde

Title: From Asteroids to Uncertainty Quantification via Computational Optimisation

The talk will present an overview of my research ranging from asteroid deflection and exploitation, astrodynamics and low-thrust trajectory design to computational optimisation, uncertainty quantification and robust optimisation of engineering systems. A few case studies will illustrate some of the major developments and results that have been achieved so far and a number of possible future directions.
